There’s A Surprising Secret Behind Trump-Hating NBA Coach

Amongst NBA coaches, Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich has been one of the more vocal in opposition towards President Trump.

But another NBA coach – who has also been hypercritical of Trump – has a surprising family secret that completely contradicts his hatred towards the President.

Breitbart reports:

Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr is an enigma.

His father was killed by terrorists in Lebanon, yet Kerr continues to trash President Donald J. Trump, a hawk dealing with terrorism.

On January 18, 1984, Malcolm Kerr, working at American University of Beirut, was shot in the back of the head outside his office.

A group called Islamic Holy War took responsibility a few days later.

Steve Kerr was 18 when his 52-year-old father was assassinated. It was a devastating family tragedy.

The Kerr family sued the Iranian government over the assassination.

So you would think Kerr would respect Trump, who is not only a pit bull in dealing with Iran, but also wants to eradicate terrorists like the ones who killed his father.

After recent terror attacks in the United Kingdom and Egypt, Trump said, “This year, the (Ramadan) holiday begins as the world mourns the innocent victims of barbaric terrorist attacks in the United Kingdom and Egypt.

Such acts only steel our resolve to defeat the terrorists and their perverted ideology. I reiterate my message delivered in Riyadh: America will always stand with our partners against terrorism and the ideology that fuels it.

During this month of Ramadan, let us be resolved to spare no measure so that we may ensure that future generations will be free of this scourge and able to worship and commune in peace.”

Shouldn’t Kerr respect somebody who speaks this way, considering his own family tragedy?

But no, Kerr despises Trump, and often rips him to the sports media. His latest shots at Trump were last week to Sports Illustrated when he told reporter Chris Ballard the president is ‘ill-suited to be president because he’s a blowhard.’

On January 30, Kerr blasted Trump’s temporary travel ban of citizens from seven terror-laden countries due to vetting concerns.

“We’re really going against the principles of what our country’s about,” Kerr said, “and creating fear, it’s the wrong way to go about it.”

What is the right way to go? Kerr’s plan to deal with the worldwide terrorist issue is unclear.

The sole purpose of Trump’s executive order, overturned by judges, was to keep Americans safe, which is the number one job of the president.

President Obama let ISIS grow and made virtually no effort to destroy them.

But one of Trump’s biggest campaign promises was to decimate ISIS, and it still remains a top priority for the Trump administration.

This is why Trump hired General “Mad Dog” Mattis, who everyone agrees is the man for the job.

But oddly, Kerr doesn’t see it that way.

Breitbart continued:

On election day, Kerr also blasted Trump.

“All of a sudden you’re faced with the reality that the man who’s gonna lead you has routinely used racist, misogynist, insulting words,” Kerr said.

Kerr said he had to console his players after the election result.

“You walk in and see the faces of your players, most of them who have been insulted directly as minorities, it’s very shocking,” Kerr said.

How Trump insulted Kerr’s players, mostly African-Americans, is a mystery.

Trump laced into the terrorists behind the Manchester attack, which should be music to Kerr’s ears.

“So many young, beautiful, innocent people living and enjoying their lives, murdered by evil losers,” Trump said about the Manchester bombing. “I won’t call them monsters because they would like that term, they would think that is a great name.

I will call them, from now on, losers because that’s what they are: losers.”

Yet Kerr continues to ride the Trump hate train, and it is deeply perplexing why.

Many on the Pacific Coast DO care for President Trump. The media is hiding that from you except of course when they blame the peaceful marchers for the violence of their fav Anti-Fa group. The biggest liberal areas get the most attention and have their hatred portrayed as the Right’s fault.

Keep in mind the Kerr spent most of his career playing for Popovich, so it stands to reason that he would share his mentor’s feelings. Both of them can think whatever they want about our president, but they should not be using their NBA position as soapboxes from which to spread their vitriol. As far as I know, nobody has ever credited either of them with doing anything worthwhile off the court. They should both do what they do best, coach basketball. Leave the political commentary to people who know what they’re talking about.

I’ve always respected Kerr and was happy that he was finally able to return to the bench last night. But I can’t believe how he is badmouthing Trump after what happened to his father. Trump is simply trying to make the country safer by any means, and I salute him for that. The world’s biggest liar and worst president in history who preceded him exhibited a laissez-faire attitude and wouldn’t say radical Islamic terrorism because he didn’t want to insult his brothers. But that merely allowed the Taliban and ISIS to become stronger, which is something Trump is trying to reduce.

Well, WHEN the terrorists strike here, I sincerely hope that they start with people like this jerk, & then they can hit Hollywood after that. Which they will, since they hate all that Hollywood stands for these days. Can you see any of these people leaving acting, & signing up to fight a war? Most of these people are nothing more than mouthes, & wouldn’t be caught within 50 feet of a REAL dangerous situation, & they deserve all they get.

Between a Trump-hating snowflake coach (Kerr) on one side and a Trump hating, King of the Floppers superstar (Lebron James) on the other, as far as I’m concerned, the best result to the NBA Finals would be two giant sinkholes opening up and devouring the two teams’ home arenas.

This is scary. If anyone should be pro-Trump it is this guy. But instead he is repeating the robotic words of all the other Kool-Aid drinkers. It is scary to see the brainwashing going on in this country. Wake up, sheeple, think for yourselves! Read, listen to Trumps words, observe his accomplishments, THINK! I bet if Kerr’s dad could speak he would support Trump’s views on terrorism.

Basketball has become a haven for black influences and for rich people attendance to pay their outlandish salaries ( enough to support their drugs). Most whites refuse to watch or support- why because we want to see white athletes Perform. Black dominated sports are very corrupt and crime within is over the top. Steve Kerr has become the Uncle Tom of the white race- he’s made his bed and I would never trust his allegiance to his own race. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/d713a182b5e23e12dd7c7134b6c259f05d9f731967172a112242752c1b8fa1de.jpg
